#GW17: Defensive Dependence 👉🏻 76pts 🌍 OR: 477k > 553k Aside from a Haaland haul that actually hurt my rank, my score this week relied entirely on my defensive assets, who thankfully all returned. And Verbruggen is a hero! 🦸🏻‍♂️ The midfield was a horror show. Dour week 😒 #FPL

Check out our Christmas pod, wading through all the carnage of the last few days…

#GW17 🌍 OR: 477k 🧻 Transfer (4FT) 🧢 Haaland (and hoping for a blank) Not much to do this week… Minteh needs to step up!! Thiago needs to turn up 🙏🏻 Late change on the bench to make Kroupi Jr. first backup for his late BUR goal(s) 🤞🏻 Good luck folks!! #FPL

Get your weekly fix of FPL Last Resort with Richie & Danny looking ahead to GW17…

#GW16: Midfield Monsters! 👉🏻 90pts 🌍 OR: 810k > 477k Still a bit gutted over the failure to save the team properly after I bought Chalobah expressly to bench Minteh close to deadline 😭 Would have been another 100k off the rank 😩 Still… great week, lovely green arrow ☺️ #FPL

Great stat to the week, but damn… spot the (not)deliberate mistake 😭😭 Should be flying! 😒

#GW15: Bruno Bonanza 👉🏻 60pts 🌍 OR: 992k > 810k The Foden transfer banged, but other than that it was shaping up to be a pretty disappointing week… then Bruno changed that single-handedly, serving up a healthy green arrow. Now we’re overflowing with transfers! 😀 #FPL

#GW15 🌍 OR: 992k ⬅️ Semenyo ➡️ Foden 🧢 Haaland Really need to get back on the climb this week after a disastrous GW14 Good luck folks!! #FPL

#GW14: Haaland Hurt 👉🏻 54pts (-4) 🌍 OR: 550k > 992k A week of agonising over Bruno’s supposed absence after being punished badly for betting against Erling Bruno showed up (as always) but didn’t do enough to save the week In fact, even with Haaland cap I’d have been on a decent red arrow #FPL

#GW14 🌍 OR: 550k ⬅️ Sarr & Vicario ➡️ Anderson & Verbruggen (-4) Agonised over the Verbruggen hit, but it frees up some cash that should be REALLY useful next week (Kroupi > Thiago)… just hope that Bart minimises the 4pt loss v Dubravka 🤞🏻 Good luck folks!! #FPL

#GW13: Bruno Bangs! 🌍 OR: 498k > 550k A pretty meagre GW, rescued by Bruno and to a lesser extent Saka & Mateta I’d have taken a grey arrow at pre-deadline, considering all the FH & TC in play, and should be relieved that Haaland flopped But the FH4 fail is painful now #FPL

Soooo… what the hell am I doing with Vicario??

Sooooo… what the hell I doing with Vicario??

#GW13 🌍 OR: 498k ⬅️ Virgil ➡️ O’Reilly 🧢 Haaland Wasn’t easy selling Virgil, and there’s a real risk of a bullet header this week, but feels like a great entry point for O’Reilly, and a bit of protection against FHers. Good luck folks!! #FPL

#GW12: Minteh Fresh! 👉🏻 58pts 🌍 OR: 889k > 498k A very solid week, thanks mainly to Muñoz and new boy Minteh 🔥 Certainly helped that Andersen stepped in for Semenyo in his absence ☺️ Nice little rank jump, and finally broke 500k for the first time this season #FPL

#GW12 🌍 OR: 889k ⬅️ Gabriel & Reijnders ➡️ Virgil & Minteh Been out all day, but here we are. Was really keen on the idea of Kroupi first bench, in case he started in place of Semenyo… but I bottled it at the last minute. Gutted. No pressure Andersen! 🤣 Good luck folks!! #FPL

Going live with the lads just now...

#GW11: Penalty Plonkers! 👉🏻 43pts 🌍 OR: 966k > 889k Another two penalty misses to add to the two Bruno has already delivered… In 11 GW!? 🤯🤣 Pretty disappointing week, but somehow still a small green. Suppose I take it… Now for another slow, boring IB 😒 #FPL

#GW11 🌍 OR: 966k 🧻 Transfer 🧢 Haaland Holding pattern this week. Was supposed to be rinse and repeat from last week, but I’ve made a last minute change to start Dubravka 🤞🏻 Good luck folks!!! #FPL

Danny calling me out on my bullshit this week… deffo got lucky as a recent Gyokeres seller 😅

#GW10: Defensive Deluge 👉🏻 82pts 🌍 OR: 1.31m > 966k Pedro > Mateta was 🤷🏻‍♂️ but been a big swing in value, and I’m happier to have Mateta moving forward Gabriel is a force of nature at the moment, and a clean sweep across the backline this week. Even Vicario delivered, despite conceding. #FPL

#GW10 🌍 OR: 1.31m ♻️ Pedro > Mateta 🧢 Haaland Nice and easy this week! Last week’s hit was to ensure I had exact funds for Mateta this week, so I had to move Sunday night Great to be able to have Andersen back in time for WOL. Hope benching Reijnders doesn’t bite me! Good luck folks!! #FPL

#GW9: Kommeth the Kroupi 👉🏻 42pts (-4) 🌍 OR: 894k > 1.31m Need to get back into the habit of not doing the this on the eve of deadline 🤣 But it was a bad week, so not shirking away from it. Was looking passable, and was green, until Spurs defenders went mental 😆 #FPL

#GW9 🌍 OR: 894k ⬅️ Anderson & Gyokeres ➡️ Saka & Kroupi Jr. (-4) Highly luxury move, and only really did it because it freed up the transfer and retained the funds I might need to move for Mateta next week Hopefully, Saka outscores Gyokeres by more than 4pts in the coming weeks 🤞🏻 Good luck folks!

Another great discussion with Richie and Danny!

#GW8: Burnley Boost 👉🏻 96pts 🌍 OR: 2.46m > 894k First 6-figure rank of the season!! 😅 Massive BB success, thanks to the BUR lads. Gabriel & Munoz smashed it too to give me a great GW Chipless now though, so gonna be fire-fighting a bit, but happy with the squad setup #FPL

As with everything in FPL, have to accept this came with a fair slice of luck, but absolutely buzzing with the BB ☺️

#GW8 🌍 OR: 2.46m Tarkowski > Timber 🧢 Haaland 🪑💉 Active It’s not the most amazing BB, but it’s 4 home fix, and there won’t be too many opportunities for my double BUR defence, so fingers crossed for the Clarets! 🤞🏻 Good luck folks! #FPL

Great line-up last night to get us back in the swing for GW8...

#GW7 👉🏻 76pts (-4) 🌍 OR: 2.83m > 2.46m At last, we’re back!! The Gabriel hit didn’t pay-off (-2pts), thanks to a jammy Porro assist. But happy to pay that for an extra FT & peace of mind over the IB. The Munoz 17ptr collapse was disappointing, but overall a decent week. #FPL

#GW7 🌍 OR: 2.83m ⬅️ Wood & Porro ➡️ Gyokeres & Gabriel (-4) 🧢 Haaland Last minute call on the Gabriel hit, and it might not pay off this week, but it’s bought me a more after the IB, bringing forward an inevitable move. Fingers crossed! And good luck folks!!! #FPL

#GW6: Haaland Heroics! 👉🏻 70pts 🌍 OR: 4.97m > 2.83m Well I did say I’d gone Bruno > Cunha 🏥 > Palmer 🏥 > Bruno ? And the ? was a -1 missed pen 🫠🤣 Thankfully, Haaland (TC) saved the day 🍾 Not much else but a nice jump to my highest rank of the season (2.8m) 😅 #FPL

I would like to apologise to all Bruno owners… I have blood on my hands I now have 2 Bruno pen misses to my name, and I’ve missed the 2 penalties scored 🤣🤣

#GW6 🌍 OR: 4.9m Palmer > Bruno Haaland 🧢 🧢 🧢 From Bruno to Cunha 🏥 to Palmer 🏥 back to Bruno 🤞🏻 Good luck folks!!! #FPL

#GW5: Palmer Pain! 👉🏻 36pts 🌍 OR: 4.1m > 4.9m Another week, another red 🥴 Debating Roll, Bruno in, Palmer in, and yet again chose the worst possible option 😭 Chelsea going down to 10 was bad enough, until Palmer limped off 15 mins later 😆 Oh well, we go again!! #FPL

#GW5 🌍 OR: 4.1m Cunha > Palmer Palmer 🧢 🥶 Could have rolled, very nearly did, but just fancied getting Palmer back in and sticking the armband on him. Hope it works out! Good luck folks!!! #FPL

#GW4: FH Fail 👉🏻 72pts 🌍 OR: 5.5m > 4.1m Under normal circumstances, a decent enough score and an ok green arrow… but leaving behind a team that scored 91pts if I rolled or 90pts with my most likely move is a bit gutting 😔 Was always the plan though #FPL

#GW4: Free Hit Week! 🌍 OR: 5.5m Last week’s WC went fairly well (50pts, and up from 7.9m), but would have been SO much better if I hadn’t swapped Bruno > Cunho (598k apparently) The plan was always FH this week, having WC with NFO assets and no LIV Need a big week! 🙏🏻 Good luck folks!!

Fresh off a stag in Hamburg, I'm joining the lads at Last Resort... Come join us...

#GW3: Early WC Time! 🌍 OR: 7.9m This wasn’t the plan… but an early transfer & then the surprise Strand Larsen Houdini act left me teetering on the brink… A morning of debate, and I pushed the button 10 mins to deadline 😰 So here we go. Wish me luck! I could do with it 🤣

#GW2 🌍 OR: 5.8m Georginio > Reijnders 🧢 Salah Kicked myself for dropping Reijnders about two hours before GW1 kickoff, so rectified it before he rose in price. Tough 50/50 on Dorgu v Anderson… goal threat v Home fixture & DefCons 🤞🏻 Good luck folks!! #FPL

#GW1: Back with a Whimper 👉🏻 50pts 🌍 OR: 5.8m Comfortably my worst GW1 rank of the last 9 years… “since (my) records began” (by a long way in fact) Still, it’s a LONG way to go!! And the silver lining is, that it’s gotta be green arrows from here… right??? 😰 #FPL

#GW1: We’re Back Baby!! 🌍 OR: T1 No transfers 🧢 Salah It’s good to be back ☺️ Watkins & Pedro worry me. Wanted the big midfield… was on Anderson then Reijnders most of preseason, but decided today to trim Neco down and fund 6.0 mid 🤞🏻 Good luck folks!! #FPL

Yesterday's stream on our preseason learnings. Check it out ahead of your next draft tinker 👇 www.youtube.com/live/pErKhU8...

#GW38: Deadline Dope 👉🏻 60pts 🌍 OR: 20.3k > 20.3k 🟢 Finally back from the Liverpool celebrations. What a weekend. And that was the reason I missed my 1st deadline in forever Can’t say for certain if Semenyo or Kluivert would have come in for KDB, but it could have been an amazing final day 1/2

#GW37: Bowen Bangs! 👉🏻 53pts 🌍 18k > 20k First red arrow for 6 GW, and a bit disappointing. Maybe should have backed my ARS defence a bit more If I’d got a few benching decisions right involving Emi & AWB the past 3 GW I’d be inside the Top 10k But I didn’t and I’m not. And that’s the game! #FPL

I was recruited to this team last season… a great bunch of lads… a BRUTAL mini-league that has me mid-table at 20k… but it’s a pleasure to be part of this group. And due to their high standards… Europa Cup Champions!!! 🏆

#GW37 🌍 OR: 18k ⬅️ Mateta ➡️ Watkins 🧢 Watkins Penultimate week 😢 Routine transfer. Out with mins-risk, cup final-bound Mateta… in comes this week’s hot property Don’t let us down Ollie!! #FPL

#GW36: Where Wissa?? 👉🏻 60pts 🌍 OR: 19k > 18k Another green arrow, so must grumble, but it’s a slow creep up the ranks… I know it’s 20/20 hindsight but had I played Emi last week, and AWB this week (I was until Slot confirmed Bradley’s start), I would already be inside 10k 😰 But I’m not 🤣 #FPL

Debated all week between moving Mateta for 1pt Wissa or 0pt Cunha… Went with Wissa, for what it’s worth. It’s worth 1pt.
